"Your Highness, is there something urgent?" Pei Ling asked as he watched Yu Nian fleeing in panic.
"It just suddenly occurred to me that I have something else to do."
"His Majesty specifically instructed me to take good care of Your Highness along the way. Please review these documents when Your Highness is free." A man's voice came from behind. Yu Nian just wanted to fool around and leave quickly, so she replied, "Yes, I will definitely take a look."
After saying that, she fled from the cockpit.
Back in the lounge, Han Chen saw Yu Nian was relieved and asked, "Nian Nian seems a little scared of General Pei?"
Yu Nian nodded: "When I saw him, I thought of the three-hour meeting last night, and I always felt that this person was a bit strict."
Although she couldn't explain why she felt this way, her sixth sense instinctively told her to stay away.
Han Chen consoled him with a few words, "I have to go out for something soon and may be back late. If there is anything urgent, you can call me directly through the terminal and I will definitely come back."
Yu Nian lay on the bed, opened the terminal and started reading novels and TV series that he had downloaded in advance.
[Pei Ling: Your Highness, you cannot sleep during tonight's meeting.]
The moment Yu Nian saw the message pop-up, she silently swiped it away, pretended not to see it and continued watching the drama.
On the other side, the man who had just picked up his official work opened the terminal again, but no red dot appeared.
Just as he was about to close the terminal, the reply ring rang.
[Subordinate: General, there is a document that requires your signature.]
Pei Ling: "...Come in."
It's time for another difficult meeting.
Yu Nian took a sip of the latte that Han Chen had ordered in advance, and his chaotic consciousness finally became a little clearer.
Pei Ling continued to talk about the sexual policy of this event in the main seat. Yu Nian maintained a relatively upright sitting posture, scribbling on the notebook with a pen.
Soon, a Q version of Pei Ling appeared on the paper. He was holding a small teaching stick and wearing a tight uniform. Yu Nian looked at the picture and always felt that something was missing.
"Hurry up and study!"
She added a bubble frame, and instantly felt that the little work was complete.
Before I could appreciate it for long, I heard Pei Ling say that the meeting was over.
Yu Nian closed the notebook and prepared to leave.
"Your Highness, please stay."
Yu Nian pretended that he was not calling her and quickened her pace.
"Your Highness."
Unexpectedly, this time the man directly grabbed her wrist.
Yu Nian knew he couldn't escape, so he turned around and pretended to be surprised and asked, "General Pei, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
"Your Highness, you left so quickly. Do you hate seeing me?"
Yu Nian faked a smile and tried to pull the man's hand off his wrist. "How could that be, General, you're overthinking it."
Pei Ling's deep gray eyes looked at Yu Nian quietly, as if he could see through her completely.
"Admiral, is there anything you want to tell me? If not, I'll be leaving now."
"Your Highness, have you read the meeting minutes I sent you this morning?" Pei Ling asked.
"I saw a little bit."
The man nodded and continued, "Your Highness, if there's anything you don't understand, please ask me. Your Majesty has asked me to take care of you during this trip, so I will naturally do my best."
After thinking deeply, Yu Nian asked, "How do you want to accomplish this?"
"Learning naturally begins with theoretical knowledge. If Your Highness is free tonight, please study with me in the conference room."
Before Yu Nian could say anything to refuse, Pei Ling said, "The conference room is not good. Your Highness seems dissatisfied with this place, otherwise he wouldn't always fall asleep during my meetings. In that case, Your Highness, please come to my office."
Yu Nian was led into the office by Pei Ling in a daze. She sat in front of the large dark desk and opened "Aircraft Piloting for Beginners" with a bitter and resentful look on her face. The dazzling words piled in front of her looked like a ball of ink.
Pei Ling thoughtfully found her a teaching video left by the empire's best lecturer, and said, "Your Highness, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me."
Yu Nian was about to brush it off, but then she saw General Pei staring at her expressionlessly and saying something heartbreaking, "In an hour, I will ask you questions about what you've learned to help you consolidate your memory."
He even thoughtfully prepared some strong tea. Yu Nian lost all sleepiness after just one sip. She could only force herself to stay awake and let the knowledge force its way into her brain.
The video explains the various components and different categories of Imperial aircraft from the basics to the complexities.
"Aircraft and ships operate in the same way. Although their appearances are quite different, the main operating principles are the same: engine, speed increaser, converter, pushbutton switches, steering wheel... With a solid foundation, students can also create small aircraft by hand."
Yu Nian supported his chin with one hand and finally managed to get through an hour.
"Is there anything your Highness doesn't understand?" Pei Ling sat on the other side of the desk and looked at Yu Nian.
Yu Nian thought back to what he had just learned, "No."
The man nodded and said, "In that case, I will inspect your learning achievements."
Pei Ling first briefly asked about the composition and principles of the aircraft, and Yu Nian answered them haltingly.
The man continued to remain expressionless, his emotions undetectable. "Your Highness is smarter than I thought."
Yu Nian: “…”
She clenched her fists and gave a harmless smile.
Is there anyone who praises others so much?!
Was he really not scolding himself?
"These are the spare parts. Your Highness, please assemble the simple aircraft." Pei Ling's tone was flat, but his words made Yu Nian's pupils tremble.
"You want me to build a flying machine?!"
Pei Ling nodded, not seeming to think that what he proposed was unreasonable.
Yu Nian looked at these parts that looked completely different from what was shown in the video. "What are these? I don't recognize them."
She pointed at the parts on the table and said, "General Pei, this is different from what you taught in the video."
Pei Ling took out a few blank blueprints and placed them in front of Yu Nian. "Your Highness, the content of the video tutorial just now was too simple. I can teach you some practical knowledge."
The man's slender fingers held the pen and slid it across the plain white paper. He disassembled the basic parts of the aircraft and classified the parts according to the drawings.
"I will begin assembling the parts. Your Highness, please do not be distracted."
Yu Nian was just criticizing the man in her heart, but she was directly called out.
Facing the serious "teacher" in front of her, she could only smile and remain silent. After all, the teacher was using the title of queen to suppress her.
The man removed his black gloves, revealing his slender, white fingers. Though slightly calloused, they didn't detract from his appearance. His knuckles moved flexibly, transforming ordinary parts into familiar components, finally fitting them together.
A small aircraft with only basic flying functions suddenly appeared in front of Yu Nian.
She was speechless.
"Your Highness, have you watched it yet?"
"..." Yu Nian shook his head honestly, his movements were too fast and he didn't remember anything.
Pei Ling nodded and disassembled the thing into its parts again. "Don't worry, Your Highness. I will teach you well."
